The Reported Murder of w. ID, Donaldson
Confirmed.

THE TIMES yesterday gave information
Of the reported murder Of Mr. w. B..
Donaldson, at Sewell, Fayette county,
West Virginia.
The murder was committed by man
named John X. Thurman. The man had
been in the employ Of George NJ. Don
aldson & Co., but had been discharged a
short time since. Tuesday he came back
to the lumber mills, and dispute arose
between him and the deceased. This was,
however, settled, it was supposed, AMIGA
blv. Mr.. Donaldson resumed work, and
while thus engaged, Thurman crept up
behind him and struck him with a shovel.
The skull was crushed in, and the unfOr-
tunate man died instantly.
As was stated, the murdered man was
a brother of Mr.. George VI. Donaldson,
a we'll knOwn citizen and prominent lum-
Der dealer Of this city. Mr. W. b. Don
adsOn managed the interests of the firm
at the lumber tract near Sewell. The
firm were there engaged in manufactur-
ing car lumber for shipment to England.
Mr.. w. b. Donaldson married daughter
of the late Judge Robert Ould, and Mr..
Bright Ould, his brother-in-law, is en-.
gagged in business at the scene of the
murder.
The deceased had been but short time
married to young lady Of North Caro-
lima. The DOnaldsOns were originally
from Scotland, and both were held in the
greatest esteem both in Richmond and
West Virginia.
After the murder Thurman fled, and
had not been captured at last accounts.
The murder is looked upon as a dastardly
and unprovoked one, and as it is in a
wild section, summary measures are ex-
pected should the murderer be appre-
hpnded

Death of an Excellent Woman.

Mrs Mary f. Lockett, most estima-
BILE lady, died Wednesday night at the
residence of her son, Mr.. Jacob Writ in
Swansboro. Mrs. Lockett had been a
resident of Manchester at least forty
wears. She was twice married, her last
husband being Captain Lockett, whose
death occurred many years ago. She was
the mother of Mrs. James Clayton, and
leaves half dozen or more grandchildren.
All the old residents of Manchester knew
Mrs. Lockett, and they, with many others,
will read the announcement of her death
with a feeling of deep regret. She was
a good and pious Christian woman, had
been member of the Methodist church
for perhaps fifty years, and her life had
been useful and an exemplary one.

Decision Reversed.

The Supreme Court yesterday, in the
case of Fore against Campbell reversed
the judgment of the Circuit Court Of
Richmond rendered on the 18th of Feb
ruary, 1885. In January, 1884, the plain

city of Richmond, each holding by title
not disputed. The defendant in error
resided upon his lot. The plaintiff in
error resided in a distant part of the
State, and her lot was rented out by a
real estate agent to tenant, who resided
thereon. The contest was over two feet
of the lot owned by Miss Fore, the plain
tiff in error The lower court decided in
favor of Campbell, who claimed TO have
purchased the two feet, but an appeal
was taken and the case was decided as
above stated.

An alarm OF fire was turned in from
Box 8, Broad street engine house, at .
o'clock last night. A bright light was
seen on Governor street, and In rev
moments Hook and Lsdder-Truck No. l.,
and Steamers 3 and 4 were at the scene
of the fire. Flames were found to be
bursting out of the reof OF No. 2lI
Governor street, owned and occupied by
the Richmond Eye, Ear, and Throat
Infirmary. The fire was in the roof, and
when the apparatus arrived was rapidly
spreading. One stream was carried on
the roof and another was taken through
the house, and in fow minutes the
flames were cxtinguished.
Several OF the patients were much
frightened by the confusion. One OF
them, Mrs. Moore, rushed out of the
house. and 1t was after long search that
she was finally discovered in st. Luke's
Hospital.
1t is supposed that the roof ignited from
crate fire, which had been left burning
in the CRATE, by means of "a defective fiue.
But for the timely help of several neigh
bors, who assisted in keeping the fire in
bounds until the arrival of the depart
ment, serious conflagration would have
been the result. Damage to the house,
about 5000 fully covered by insurance.
The furniture was uninjured.
ANOTHER CALL.
While the firemen were still working on
Governor street, an alarm was sounded
from Box 1S, No. 2 Truck house, Grace
..-I4 o. W. "a.
caused by the partial burning OF the
kitchen in rear of 17l2 East Broad street.
This building is owned by colored
woman named Smith, and is occupied by
B. Schwarzberg as - shop and 3 I'd
occurred was used Rzberg as a
store-house, and w&4EE with mat
tresses. etc. For sOnfe unaccountable
reason a great delay was experienced in
getting to work, but few minutes after
the streams were put upon the fire 1t was
completely subdued.
No stove or lamp was in the building,
and the only plausible theory as to the
origin of the fire is that Schwarzberg
who was in the room a short time be-
fore with a lighted match, threw the
glowing stick upon the floor, where 1t
smoldered, and finally burst into flames
Mrs. Schwarzberg was very i'll in bed,
and it is feared that the shock may do
her great injury.
Mr.. Schwarzberg's loss was about
800, which is fully covered by insurance
Loss on the property is about $50 which
is also fully insured.
1t is a strange coincidence, but the
alarms of both of these fires were turned
in at Hook and Ladder truck hOuses-6
box from No. /, and 19 from No. 2.
These two alarms, with one earlier in
the day, make three for yesterday. There
were also three alarms Of fire on Mon
day. Richmond is eyeidently progressing
in this particular.
